For the rash dealio if it was food, we're leaving towards the custard. He'd already gotten the start of the rash when we gave him yogurt so I'm not sure if it did make it worse or not. It's so hard to tell cause we gave him custard on the sun, mon, tues and I'm not sure about wed. It was so so hot that week it just looked like the heat rash he usually gets, also a little bit of ezcema was there too. We just thought it was the heat so we just kept giving him that little bit of custard after his vegies at dinnertime. Little did we know it would turn out like this.. He wasn't really himself either, not like throwing up but just off, so it could have been a virus too, as the doctor said.
It's frustrating to not know the extact cause.
Thanks for that about the ceral stuff. I'm going to try mashed banana in the farex tomorrow. Maybe he'll like it. idk.
I am the only person in my social circle who has a baby and was just starting to feel so isolated. Its so good to see everyone else is having the same food, poo, sleep issues that we are. I'm so glad I've come back to BB!
Tenny Happy 6 months to your DS as well. I'm pleased there's another early bub in here!
Mel - I'm so envious - I couldn't keep a secret for that long if I tried. And I'm dying to know what it is.... Yes, I still peek at my Christmas presents under the tree and search the house upside down for birthday presents. And I'm so happy you had a girl! When I was last on BB your ultrsound could have gone either way and you weren't sure you wanted to know. We moved to the South Brisbane/West End area. It's such a small flat and is only really a temporary thing until we can afford something bigger, but is great for pram walks and coffee and pretty close to the Southbank Parklands which is fab most days but will be a nightmare tomorrow with the Aussie day fireworks.
Kellx Love the photo in your signature. What beautiful smiles your little angels have!
Welcome back Majella, I was wondering where you got to as well! Congrats of the early (and long!) birth of Lulu!
Hope everyone is going good, just popped in to say I have uploaded more pics on FB....including when Mel and the family came to visit (finally!), Oh and I made another cake this morning for Australia Day....its a bit dodgy but I'm proud of it....pic is on FB aswell.
Morning folks... just a quickie cause I have to go to the gym....
Belle - so sorry to hear your mum has been sick, you're so good to look after her. Hope she feels better soon.
Majella welcome! I'm another one who was overdue my baby was born on 9th August! Do you have a Mum's group? My mum's group is awesome, your local Child Health Centre should be able to hook you up with one. It's really worthwhile and gets you out and about with other people with babies the same age. Anyway good to have you on board!
Mez - I think I'm just being too picky about the naps she sleeps through the night and is not too hard to settle if you get her at the right moment so I should just be happy with her!
Tenny that's cool about Haydie sitting at the table when you have dinner!
Kel lucky it's a bit cooler today. Kiera's probably just working up to something.... She'll probably walk up behind you and tap you on the shoulder one day!
As for the babyproofing thing I think it's pretty much a case of what you're comfortable with and what works for your baby. We have these really high bookshelves and I have nightmares about her pulling them over on herself.... and not exactly sure how babyproofing is going to work here
Beth's big thing at the moment is she wants us to hold her hands while she walks around.... so she seems to have given up on crawling for the moment to Mel and any other lurkers!
ETA Tan I LOVE the photos you put on FB ..... your kids are so gorgeous... and great shots of Mel and her kids too!

Tan - great shots of the kids - not sooooo much the one of me.. or DH's gut.. pmsl..
Majella - we should catch up one day, we go to Brissie semi-regularly... plus I'm only working one day a week now - so will probably go stir-crazy with DS at home with me all the time if I don't get out!! Let me know if you want to catch up for a play date!!!
Umm yeah thats it. Huge hello to Pixie chick AND the Bear...
Majella - Welcome Back, Congrats on your baby girl Lulu. I'm sure you'll enjoy being back in this group we are a great bunch of mummy's & Daddy.
Tannis - Oh I love your pic on FB. Your Aus Day cake is great too well done! Have a good time today.
Belle - I hope your mum gets better soon sweet, we are thinking of you
Tenny - Woohoo on Haydie sleeping through the night for you sweet. Pity you couldn't relax maybe tonight.
Pixie - Hope you had a great workout! Have a great time today at your Aus Day outing. I too would be doing something about the bookshelves as I would be freaking if something did happen it only takes a few seconds for them to do it.
Izzy decided that she wanted to wake every couple of hours last night which was a little hard. I'm looking forward to my hubby coming home today it's been a little hard especially at night without the extra help. About baby safe homes well today my little one decided to go for some vases that I have displayed on my floor (yep she pushed them over) luckily they didn't break hence me now putting them out of her reach.
she is now sleeping so I might go and have a shower and get started for the day. A BIG to kell, Mel, SW,Feeb, Tasia, Bear,Sweetpea and anyone else I may have forgotten.
We are making our lounge room the baby safe room, so we got a new enterainment unit with doors, which is great, moved coffe table to against a wall and all i have left is to clean up where our computer are then will pretty much be ok. The rest we will do by teaching her things. We are putting a baby gate agross the door to so she can't get into the rest of the house.
We decided this mainl because with up to 6 other kids in a small 3bed house they need to be able to play and not worry about there sister to much. And as the 8yr old is into beds and things we decided lounge room is bubs pay area and none of there toys are alound in lol.
she sleeps through the night and is not too hard to settle if you get her at the right moment so I should just be happy with her!
to Mel and any other lurkers!
we are thinking of you
